The Hidden Edge Club Finance Dinner

  • Location:London
  • Venue:Covent Garden Hotel
  • Length:06:30 pm – 09:30 pm

Increasing internal complexity, rising global competition and the hunt for growth-driving insights have combined to create a unique challenge for the CFO. Far from the financial controllers they once were, CFOs of today’s leading companies are leveraging new-found insights to chart the digital future of their organisations.

“Digital technology is having a profound impact on the finance function’s performance [and is] a clear opportunity for CFOs to accept and exploit their unique position at the intersection of finance, technology and strategy.” – Accenture

Involving finance in the digital agenda may seem an odd pairing for some, but a recent Accenture survey revealed that CFOs at high-performance businesses are 43% more likely to be guiding, prioritising and managing technology investment decisions than their counterparts, which begs the question, ‘Are you prepared to lead the digital agenda within your organisation?’

Access to new tools such as advanced business analytics is putting finance leaders in the driving seat. And with just 4% of organisations saying they have fully deployed enterprise analytics capabilities, the opportunity for enterprise growth and data monetisation is abundant. So, the question facing finance leaders is ‘How?’

Join us and 15 other CFOs at the next Hidden Edge Club dinner (23 JUN) where will be discussing this topic over dinner at the Covent Garden Hotel.

The Club unites industry leaders on a quarterly basis to discuss solutions to today’s greatest challenges to top-line growth and to parse out strategies for finding the hidden edge. As with all of our Club dinners the discussion is confidential and does not allow pitches or presentations.

The evening will begin at 6:30PM with half an hour of informal networking drinks. At 7PM members will move through to the dining room to begin our debate. Attendance is strictly by invitation only and is of course free, due to the kind support of our club partners, SAS.
